What is The Aspen Publishing Bouvier Law Dictionary: Compact Edition about?
This new dictionary is derived from the famous 1853 law dictionary used by Daniel Webster, Abraham Lincoln, and Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr. Relying on Bouvier's structure and original entries, Professor Stephen Sheppard of the University of Arkansas, has added thousands of new terms and rewritten the most appropriate of the original terms for the first complete revision of this essential dictionary in a hundred years. Features: Clear. These entries are written to be understood by the modern student, argued by the modern lawyer, and cited by the modern judge. They explain, rather than repeat old jargon. Authoritative. The definitions are derived from ancient and contemporary sources, including current statutes, regulations, cases, and treatises, as well as ancient and medieval sources. They are newly written by Steve Sheppard, whose writings have been published by Oxford, Cambridge and other presses, whose law degrees and doctorate are from Oxford and Columbia, whose international legal practice and litigation and whose experience teaching at the University of Arkansas guided the selection of terms. Encyclopedic. The definitions are organized in intuitive structures. Maj
